TMZ:

12:49 PM PT — President Trump just tweeted about Kobe’s death ... saying, “Reports are that basketball great Kobe Bryant and three others have been killed in a helicopter crash in California. That is terrible news!”

"He didn’t rape anyone. That chick was a mental slut."

which is why he made a secret deal to pay her off ala Micheal Jackson to his victim...

but I would never want an early death to this man....no matter what....

“And she had 5 different dude’s semen in her panties”

Actually only 3 and she was diagnosed schizophrenic to boot but who is counting?

The president will be excoriated by the Left for “daring” to comment.

“He didn’t rape anyone. That chick was a mental slut.”

What bothers me is she had really bad bruising around her neck with his handprint holding her down. Really bad bruising as in being forced. I remember when they showed the pics.

He also denied having sex with her until police said his semen was on her and he then recanted and said it was consensual.

Kobe flies his OWN helicopter, that is his own private helicopter, he used to fly to Staples Center on game day with it so that makes no sense that there would be a pilot on board, I believe HE was the pilot

protein stains do not go away unless you wash with strong bleach that people don't usually do with underwear unless they are white colored...go check out studies on hotel sheets ....he had her blood on him...he paid her off.....

Let’s hope so....regarding ABC and the reporting of the daughters.

I am not a Lakers fan. There seems to be a lot of Bryant haters out there for something that may or may not have happened early in his career....He also said some silly political crap...But remember, there are many Trump fans that were also Kobe fans...Especially in the Black community..

Yeah...in the whole scheme of things he was just a basketball player...but remember Politics is downstream from culture. I am not defending Bryant for anything he may or may not have done...but the guy is dead and perhaps his daughter’s too...One can wait until the body grows cold before slamming the guy.

I have to admit, a famous celebrity or athlete lives in a different world than we do.

For us, we have to go out of our way to find trouble.

For celebrities, trouble is always trying to find them, and it just takes a weak moment for them to give in. Not trying to excuse it, but just put it somewhat in perspective. They deal with a heck of a lot of temptation, that normal folks don’t. I made this point with Trump, as well.

His 13 yr old Gigi was on board.

KNX witnesses said that they could hear the helicopter flying overhead but couldn’t see it because the cloud cover and fog was so heavy.

They thought it had to be flying low because it sounded so loud. They thought it was circling, looking to land. Then they heard it crash.

It is his personal helicopter, it’s likely that he was piloting.
